Aanyone know where to get them or how to make some.

Every honda I've seen has different diameters, lengths.

Just had to weld 2 b red tanks because they weren't mounted correctly and fractured the tanks.

Now I glue them to the frame with contact cement, or hide them if I see them trying to get away.

Thanks,

I was just thinking about stuffing some fat diameter fuel line into some appropriate diameter heater hose.

Yea, welding those fractured tanks was a real exercise in crack chasing.

They really seem to want to be suspended in rubber mounts on all 3 points,

sure is easier to have the right ones but they like to run away and hide long before we rescue the old trikes.
